1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Formation of the calvaria is a multi-staged process and is regulated by multiple genetic factors. Disruption of normal calvarial development usually causes craniosynostosis, a prevalent birth defect characterized by premature fusion of calvarial bone. Recent studies have identified mutations of KMT2D allele in patients with craniosynostosis, indicating a potential role for Kmt2d in calvarial development. KMT2D mutations have also been implicated in Kabuki syndrome, which features a distinct facial appearance, skeletal abnormality, growth retardation and intellectual disability. However, the expression pattern of Kmt2d has not been fully elucidated. In the present study we examined the expression pattern of Kmt2d at multiple stages of embryo development in mice, with a focus on the craniofacial tissues. Our in situ hybridization results showed that Kmt2d mRNA is expressed in the developing calvarial osteoblasts, epithelia and neural tissues. Such an expression pattern is in line with the phenotypes of Kabuki syndrome, suggesting that Kmt2d plays an intrinsic role in normal development and homeostasis of these craniofacial tissues.
